Yup, this scene's got the feeling of Joss Whedon all over it. I feel like I've seen this in about a dozen other films in the last ten years.

Like what? KILLER ELITE and I think one of the CHARLIE'S ANGELS movies are the only ones that come to mind.

Not it will most likely do any good, but I encourage any interested parties to sign this petition."What Orwell feared were those who would ban books. What Huxley feared was that there would be no reason to ban a book, for there would be no one who wanted to read one."

I wasn't even talking about "escaping from being tied to a chair." I was talking about "acrobatic improvised girl martial arts fighting with quippy humorous elements." No one can say Whedon isn't known for that. Heck, Buffy's stunt doubles were more talented than Scarjo's here. There was a funny Whedon trademark in here from Buffy episodes, too, the point where you can clearly tell the girl fighting is not the lead actress but they just let it roll anyway.

Here's the deal, I'm the best there is. I wake up in the morning and I urinate excellence. And nobody can hang with my stuff. I'm just a big hairy American winning machine.
